Doctrine of "mitigation of damages"... imposes on party injured by breach of contract or tort duty to exercise reasonable diligence and ordinary care in attempting to minimize his damages, or avoid aggravating the injury, after breach or injury has been inflicted and care and diligence required of him is the same as that which would be used by man of ordinary prudence under like circumstances.

  • Law of Contracts (common law)
CONT

Under the general law of contract, said Lord Wilberforce, acceptance of a repudiatory breach does not bring about rescission ab initio’. It follows, therefore, that if an innocent party, the victim of a breach of contract that is sufficiently important, chooses to treat the contract as discharged, for example, where goods sold to a buyer are defective and the buyer rejects them, his conduct is not to be looked upon as involving rescission of the contract.

Anglais

Subject field(s)
  • PAJLO
  • Law of Contracts (common law)
OBS

Although it is commonplace to speak of discharge of a contract by breach, meaning the breach of a condition(or its equivalent), the result of such a breach is not the automatic termination of the contract... The true effect of a breach which may be said to "discharge" the contract is to relieve the innocent party of his obligations to perform under the contract(and to entitle him to sue for damages in respect of his loss...)

  • Law of Contracts (common law)
CONT

... under a contract to erect a mill and maintain and operate it for five years and not to transfer it in that time, breach of the latter stipulation gives rise to an action for damages but does not entitle the adversary party to recover money paid, as a consideration for the contract. 1 Under a similar contract buildings were erected by a manufacturing company under a contract to remove their business, but the removal was never made. This was held to be a breach going to the essence of the contract, and recovery could be had of money paid thereunder...

Subject field(s)

  • Law of Contracts (common law)
  • Tort Law (common law)
CONT

Where a party fails to perform one of his obligations, that may be called actual breach; where he evinces an intention not to perform, that may be called anticipatory breach. Actual breach may take one of three forms. Non-performance is one form of breach. Suppose A, a shipowner, charters his ship to B, undertaking to have the ship at Liverpool for loading by a certain date. If A(perhaps because he has received a more profitable offer from C in Southampton) never takes his ship to Liverpool, that is a breach of contract by non-performance. Another form of actual breach is defective performance. If A attempts to get his ship to Liverpool, but arrives late, that is a breach of contract by defective performance. A third form of actual breach is the non-truth of a statement which is a term of the contract. If it is written into the contract that the ship is suitable for carrying motor-cars, and in fact it is not, that is a breach of contract.

CONT

The kind of repudiation which can give rise to discharge on the basis of anticipatory breach must be unjustified. In other words, if the party repudiating is entitled to do so, by reason of the other party's conduct, the latter cannot rely on the former's repudiatory act so as to invoke the remedies which normally result from a breach by repudiation.

Fiche 12 2001-03-08

Anglais

Subject field(s)
  • Tort Law (common law)
CONT

A distinction is sometimes drawn between persuasion, inducement or procurement, on the one hand, and advice on the other: the former being actionable, but not the latter. Inducing a breach of contract, it is said, means to create a reason for breaking it, whereas advising a breach is merely to point out the reasons which already exist.

CONT

A proposal or threat to institute legal proceedings, with a view to deterring a contracting party from performing his obligations which the intervener honestly and reasonably believes to be illegal, is not a wrongful procurement of a breach of contract....
